Two days after North Korea finished the 8-day 8th Party Congress on the 12th, it held an evening fervor.
Chairman Kim Jong-un, wearing a Russian fur hat reminiscent of his grandfather, President Kim Il-sung, visited with a satisfied expression.

The most striking is the SLBM, a new submarine-launched ballistic missile named’North Pole Type 5′.
The warhead part was a little longer than the Polar Star-4 type that was unveiled at the fever ceremony in October last year.
It is estimated that the warhead of the KN-23, an Iskander-class short-range ballistic missile, which has undergone a test launch in 2019 and is in the stage of actual combat deployment, has also increased.
There were 4 vehicle-type wheel axles loaded with Iskander-class missiles that were unveiled last year, but this time it has been increased by 1 to 5.

The new intercontinental ballistic missile released last year, the Hwaseong-16 type ICBM, did not appear this time.
Troops armed with super-large firearms mounted on various launchers, new portable rocket cannons, and RPG-7 have also appeared.
The overall size of the rowing ceremony was smaller than it was three months ago.
Chairman Kim Byung-sik, chairman of the Supreme People’s Assembly Choi Ryong-hae, and party secretary Yong-won Cho were also present in this meeting.
In the plaza, the flight of fighters was continued with celebrations, adding to the splendor of the night fever ceremony, and after the fever ceremony, a ball and fireworks were held.
The Joint Chiefs of Staff said that it is analyzing details such as new weapons that appeared in the North Korean parade.
Following North Korea’s disclosure of the appearance of a new strategic weapon, interest is increasing whether it will actually launch a test launch.
